The British one, the center food pile, (main course?) looks like turds over rice...

Having eaten these before, if that’s what home tastes like to you then you should move. On the other hand, it was interesting to see the South Korean meals. Everything else was very western, and pretty similar.

There's a pretty good website that has lots of details about various country's combat rations -
mreinfo.com. As with the story, the French rations looked to be the best, with American, Canadian, and German being a respectable second. The Russian ration pack had some of the grossest stuff I've ever seen:
The tushonka on the top right looks downright unfit for human consumption!

I loved eating these. When my dad was in the Army during the time of the first Gulf War, he brought these home often. Then when he was over there, we sent him REAL food.

Only the US provides toilet paper. Those Aussies are tough, though—musk candy?

The US ration includes toilet paper. I wonder why?

French boxed rations in the 1980s included a small bottle of Cognac, and a full pack of cigarettes to go along with the Pate. They were truly excellent.
